Feature Request / Re: Save Config
« Last post by BK on July 09, 2022, 10:22:56 pm »We have plan to implement backup and restore to the cloud, but I heard marketing is deciding whether it'll be a paid subscription service, since it'd be stored in the cloud.
Every time there's a firmware update, I look, but nothing yet.
So the huge positive of your hardware, and the reason I keep using/buying them, is that it's not cloud dependent.
Doing what marketing wants, making it a paid subscription for a bu feature, makes it a me too product, and not any better than the rest.
Keep an edge, make the back up and restore local, or cloud. you cover both crowds. And will keep people like me using your product. I hate the cloud.
I use a ton of Ubiquiti network hardware, cause one can go either way with it. Local or hosted cloud based.. user's choice. They have their corner of the market.
So when might we finally see a bu one can use (local) ?

Help / Re: Running multiple valves simultaneously
« Last post by codymnelson on July 29, 2021, 04:14:09 pm »So i have been running multiple zones the way you suggested last year and i have found a bug. I added another master valve to my system for the drip zones this spring. In reality it is a master valve and an input thru a relay to my well pumps VFD that commands a lower pressure set point for the drip irrigation. I set it up as terminal 24. It works mostly as intended.
The glitch i have encountered is when i have two or more zones running concurrently using the #24 master i cant have them for different periods of time. The master valve terminal powers off when the first zone finishes. The second zone keeps the zone valve energized but not the#24 master terminal. I have triple checked that they are both set for the #24 master valve. It seemed to be a consistent error earlier this spring until i attempted a work around.
If i power cycle the controller when it is in this state, it will snap out of it and energize the #24 master valve correctly for the remainder of the run time.
I had been working around this by forcing some zones to have the same run time and its not working well. I cant adjust water as needed to different garden beds and keep the water flow high enough to keep my well pump happy. It is short cycling the pump on just one zone and I haven't found a consistent fix.
If these stacked zones showed up better in the calendar it might be helpful as an alternative but as it stands, I'm struggling to juggle splitting up all my drip zones by run time and not overlap and not run into each other on different day of week frequencies.
Last year, running on the original master terminal i didn't have this problem. I had 5 drip zones all come on at 7 pm, and one ran for 15 minutes, two ran for 30 minutes and two ran for 45 minutes. This all happened without messing up the other zones.
Let me know what your thoughts are and what you need from me.
Thank you!

« Last post by bluespray_admin on June 26, 2020, 05:23:40 pm »The lawn view requires a large screen for drag and drop. The phone screen is too small for it to be useful. Hence, the phone app is designed for quick and easy functions such as turning on a zone and standard configurations.
For all other (advanced) functions, you should use your desktop browser.
